Chapter 5: double date, a familiar face, Atlas arrival

The grimm lands we're once again a war zone for the hundredth time. Grimm ran or flown towards the invading Vex. The vex hadn't been able to do anything with the planet due to the constant attacks by the grimm. A huge Nevermore swoops in and grabs a Vex Minotaur. Once the Nevermore had the minotaur in it's claws, it crushes it with ease. A small dragon grimm swoops in and does a fly by while breathing fire. Any vex caught in the fire we're turned into molten metal. Some vex we're taken to the castle on the far side of the battle field, but the vex made sure to have their taken brethren self-destruct to do some more damage. One or two vex minds had been lost with the constant battle. Some vex from the distant past and future we're even summon, but they we're easily dealt with. A Goliath grimm charges through the vex line and charges the gate. The elephant grimm didn't get close, due to a huge minotaur grabbing it by the tusks and wrestling it down to the ground. Up at the castle, a woman is seen through the window, but we can't see her appearance, we can just see her outline.

"Any progress with the captured machines?" Asked the woman.

"No my lady. These machines self-destruct before they even get here. Not even the ones brought by a Nevermore survive. Ones that do get here, they deactivate and can't be used in anyway, well other than a paper weight." Said a man sitting at a table behind the woman.

"I didn't ask for what we can't do Dr Watts. I want to know what these machines are. So, I ask again. Any progress with the captured machines?" Asked the woman.

"No lady Salem. Whatever or whoever made these machines, made them to learn and adapt. They're numbers don't seem to dwindle ether, that would explain the never ending march towards the grimm. They have a six different frames they use. They all have the same unblinking red eyes, excepted for the one that is a mounted turret. Three out of the six have a white chest piece, which from closer inspection is organic in nature. I was able to get a closer look at it before any of the captured machines exploded. Then there's the different models, the gold with white ones look newer, the bronze ones seem more recent, and the ones that are a darker colour seem to be older models if I'm correct." Said Dr Watts.

"I must make more grimm. Perhaps I should bring back some ancient grimm to combat these machines." Said Salem.

A huge explosion happens as the huge minotaur is defeated, taking out the Goliath and some other grimm, with some vex being taken out as well. This vex plague will end and soon Salem will destroy whatever place these machines call home.

Meanwhile at Beacon, specifically the cafeteria

"Children please don't play with your food." Said Ms Goodwitch.

Nora burps loudly and the rest laughs. Yang then comes crashing down through the ceiling and she stands up to dust herself off. She smiles and gives them the thumbs up. Ozpin puts his hand on Ms Goodwitch's shoulder.

"Leave it be." Said Ozpin.

"But their supposed to be the protectors of the world." Said Ms Goodwitch.

"Their still children. Let them play the part. Besides, it isn't a part they will have forever. Team LIHT, RWBY, and JNPR. I have a small mission for you. I need you twelve in my office in about two hours. Don't be late." Said Ozpin.

They all see their professor and headmaster walk away. Team LIHT comes out from the Ward of Dawn. Leo and his team didn't want to participate in the massive food fight that happened between teams RWBY and JNPR, to keep the damage lower. It started by more throwing a pie into Weiss's face. Then it descended into chaos. Food went everywhere, into windows, other people, the walls, etc. At one point Jaune was thrown into the window. Then the rest of the students made a mad dash for the door, just as Sun and Neptune showed up. Soon Weiss was thrown into a pillar, that also broke on impact. Yang was then slammed through the ceiling by Nora with a watermelon hammer. Next was Blake and Ren, the latter getting hit by a ketchup grenade. Pyrrha and Jaune we're the last ones standing on team JNPR. While Ruby was the only one standing on her team. Ruby used her semblance to make a food tornado and had it slam into team JNPR and the Ward of Dawn. In the bubble shield was all of team LIHT, Sun, and Neptune.

"I love these guys." Said Sun.

"Same." Said Neptune.

The others then head back to their rooms to clean up. Team LIHT head back to their room to change into their armour. It was Sunday and school would be back in full swing tomorrow. Team RWBY would be spending the day with each other. But, tonight two of the members of team RWBY had other plans. Two members of team LIHT also had plans that night as well.

One week ago

Blake was on the student dorm's room. A doorway it behind her that leads back inside. Blake was waiting for someone to meet her up on the roof.

"This is stupid. He's human and I'm faunus. No one on ether side of our races would accept a human and faunus dating each other. Sure there has been some relationships between faunus and humans, but it usually doesn't last long, ether from constant racism or harassment from others. I should just head back inside." Thinks Blake.

"So you wanted to talk Blake?" Came the voice of Issac.

"EEE!" Squealed Blake in surprise.

Issac was climbing up the side of the building, again. The other professors had told Issac multiple times not to do it, but he didn't listen. Blake heard Issac one time mumble something in Russian, which she somewhat understood.

"I'm a hunter. I make my own rules." Was the thing that Issac had said.

Issac had on a pair of black sweat pants and a grey sweater on. The winds blows the sweater up a bit and Blake's face gains some blush to it. Issac had no shirt underneath his sweater. So Blake got a good look at Issac's six pack.

"My eyes are up here Blake. So what did you need to talk about with me?" Said Issac.

Blake's face goes even more red with embarrassment. She starts to fidget around with her hands a bit. Blake looks around Issac, but not at his face.

"Well… I… was wondering if…. You want to go on a date with me?" Asked Blake.

"Kill me please." Thinks Blake.

"Sure." Said Issac.

"Wait what?" Said Blake out loud.

"I said sure. Next week, Sunday. I'll pick you up from your dorm room. I know the prefect place to go too. You thought I would say no just because your a faunus?" Said Issac.

Blake nods her head.

"Well I don't care if your faunus. I care for who you are. See you next Sunday beautiful." Said Issac as he climbs down the building.

"MR HIKIARI! FOR THE FIFTIETH TIME THIS MOUTH, DON'T CLIMB THE DORMS!" Yelled a random professor.

"BLYAD' (F**K)!" Yelled Issac

Blake hears Issac share Russian. She then sees him climb back up and run for the doorway. But he gives her a quick kiss on the cheek. Blake froze on the spot. Three minutes pass and she heads back to her dorm room to find a outfit for next Sunday. Along the way, Blake jumps up in victory and excitement.

Meanwhile at the statue

Leo was waiting for Yang to show up. So he was talking to Ying.

"So what do you think Yang wants to talk about?" Asked Leo.

"Maybe to ask you out on a date? She has been more close to you since the Cabal appeared." Replied Ying.

After the Cabal and the Christmas party, Yang had been spending a little more time with Leo and Clover. She would help Leo train Clover on some days of the week. She would check in on him from time to time, ether ask him directly or by texting him. Sure Leo liked that Yang was helping him more, but she seemed like she wanted to tell him something, but she couldn't.

"I wonder what Yang really thinks of me?" Said Leo out loud.

"You can ask her now, she's here." Said Ying.

Yang comes jogging up to Leo.

"Sorry, Clover wanted me to help her with something." Said Yang.

"No worries. No one said taking care of a kid would be easy. If it was so easy, I bet everyone would have a kid or two kids." Said Leo in a joking manner.

This got two reactions from Yang. One was a laugh. Two, was the sudden increase of blush on her face. Leo couldn't help but feel happy and another feeling he never had.

"So… Uh… What did you want to tell me?" Asked Leo.

"Oh… Uh… I was wondering if you wanted to hang out next Sunday?" Asked Yang, with more blush appearing.

Leo froze for a short moment. Yang was asking him out!

"You mean like a date?" Asked Leo.

Yang's face gains more blush.

"Yes." Said Yang.

"By the Traveler, I think I'm in love." Said Leo.

"Took you long enough to notice." Said Ying.

"Sure. I'll come by your dorm around six or six thirty on Sunday. Sound good?" Said Leo.

"Sure! Don't be late tiger." Said Yang.

"I though I was a lion." Said Leo.

Yang playfully rolls her eyes and begins to walk away. But she plants a quick kiss on Leo's right cheek. Yang then walks away while swaying her hips more. Leo had arc energy sparking around him like crazy. Ying comes out when she knows that Yang or anyone else isn't around. Ying then drops one of Leo's legendary pulse rifles on his head.

'THUMP!'

"OW!" Yelled Leo.

Leo then heads in to find some casual clothes for his date.

Back to the present

Teams RWBY, JNPR, and LIHT make their way through the Emerald Forest. The four guardians had on different armour sets. Leo had the EDZ armour set. Issac had the Exodus Down armour set on, with gambit chrome shader on. Hank had Iron Banner armour on that looked like viking armour. Trevor had on the vanguard dare armour set, with a shader dedicated to Cayde-6. Each of them had their respective hand cannons on their hips. Jaune had a new holsters made for his new weapons. Trust was strapped to his lower back. Bygones was holstered to a new magnet holster added to Jaune's armour. Both had a shader on that made them white and gold. It took Jaune a while to get the basics down with his new weapons. Pyrrha helped him with weapon maintenance and handling. Issac and Trevor showed Jaune how do the quick draw with a hand cannon. Leo gave advice to Jaune about how he used Bygones and Trust. Hank mostly worked on his weapon, which was now almost down.

"So what do you think Ozpin wanted us to check out?" Asked Ruby.

"Well, grimm have been moving towards the east side more and one security guard could have sworn he saw someone with a backpack on walking around here somewhere, also heading east. So we could be looking at a rescue mission." Said Ren.

"Ren's right. We haven't ran into any grimm so far. They could have sensed the person's negative emotions, if the person was angered or something of the like to draw them towards them." Said Pyrrha.

"So let's go!" Said Ruby, walking in the wrong direction.

"East it that way Ruby." Said Trevor.

"That way!" Said Ruby.

"She's such a child." Said Weiss face palming and in a low voice.

"Aren't you a child as well. You won't stop stalking Hank, like some kind of love interest." Said Trevor.

Weiss's face exploded with blush. If Hank didn't have his helmet on, they would all see him blushing. Leo just laughs a bit. He had the Last Man Standing gambit prime shotgun in his hands and he was scanning their surroundings. Not a single grimm had appeared, which had raised the groups awareness a lot. Grimm would have been swarming this places, but not even a lone Beowulf had shown up. The only grimm to appear, we're the small nevermores, which Trevor shot them down from the hip with Ace. Weiss was talking to Hank.

"But that doesn't make sense!? A bullet shouldn't be able to heal a person, if the shooter fires form the hip! Who the hell came up with this!?" Said Weiss, who swore for the first time.

Hank just shakes his head.

"Tell that to Dredgen Yor. Thorn was made from the grimm. Malfeasance was made form a ascendent grimm's heart, a very ancient grimm that can only be summoned in Gambit or Gambit Prime, and many other weapons that we're possible made by using grimm." Said Hank.

"What!?" Said Weiss in a low voice.

"Yep. Drifter had a way to summon them, but he didn't tell us. I think he was trying to teach use how to drift between light and darkness. When one of us invaded the enemy teams arena, he would say 'Embrace the darkness, take out those guardians.' The vanguard kept him close to keep an eye on him. Then there's Gambit Prime, a more challenging version of Gambit. Once a guardian gets hooked on invading in their first gambit match, they come right back. But that's my opinion." Said Hank.

Blake and Issac walk with each other. The two enjoy the time they share with each other, even if they don't talk to each other. Blake had gotten more into the lore of Issac's home, mostly about the people and their stories. Issac had sent Blake some weapon lore tabs, some of which needed to be modified to keep their secret safe. Black loved the 'The Lawless Frontier', 'The Man They Called Cayde', and the 'Ecdysis' lore books, but was sad to hear that wasn't anymore, but she still love to read them over again.

"So how are you liking the lore books?" Asked Issac.

"I love them. I was a bit sad to hear there aren't any more, but I don't mind. You did say these books took a very long time to make and to find the information." Said Blake.

"Try going over the grimoire cards. Those things we're good as well. Sadly they we're all mostly destroyed in the Red War, some of which being used to make the new lore books." Said Issac.

Blake just smiles.

"You ready for tonight?" Asked Issac.

"You bet. I saw Yang last week looking at different clothes. I think she finally asked Leo out. Their date is also tonight." Said Blake.

"Well then, Trevor owes me ten bucks. And how about we make tonight a double date." Said Issac.

Blake was a little nerves about that idea. She didn't know how her team would react. Sure they knew she was faunus, but even they have to know about how most human and faunus relationships workout in the end. Ruby would be oblivious to their relationship or she would be extremely happy for them. She knew other members of team LIHT would be happy for them as well. Also Leo, Trevor, and Hank already saw her as family and a great friend. Trevor would joke about wanting five nieces or nephews. Hank liked some of the books he borrowed from Blake, which Hank also let Blake borrow some of his books. Leo was like a brother anyone could ask for.

"I'll think about it. I'll tell you after this mission." Said Blake.

"Sure." Said Issac.

'BANG!'

Everyone jumps when they heard Leo's shotgun fire a shot off into a Ursa's head, the bear grimm was pretty big, possible a Ursa major. More grimm roar in the distance. A medium pack of beowolves soon come running out of the bushes.

"Music?" Asked Trevor.

"Hmmmm? Something, from the Hip Hop genre." Said Leo.

(Play Can't Hold Us [feat Ray Dalton], from The Heist {Deluxe Edition})

Ruby and Weiss tag team a medium size beowulf. Weiss freezes its right side, while Ruby slices it's left side off. Blake whips Yang around with her ribbon on her weapon. Yang laughs as she decapitates three Beowolves in one punch. Jaune unholsters Bygones and gets a headshot on a beowulf. He then switches to his sword and shield. Pyrrha throws her shield like a code of the aggressor titan and slices a beowulf in two. Ren throws some of his new ninja stars at the grimm, getting some of the stars logged in the eyes. Nora jumps onto a beowulf and rides around them firing of grenades. Leo uses his burning maul to send more grimm flying. Hank does a chaos reach and get more of the pack down. Issac does a blade barrage and hits more of the remanding pack members. Trevor uses way of the worrier arc staff and takes out the rest of the grimm.

"Well that was fun. Mind sending me that song." Said Yang.

"Sure Goldie locks." Said Leo.

"Come on guys! The person has to be close by!" Said Ruby.

They walk some more and come across a cave. They see some foot prints near the entrance.

"Foot prints. Still fresh. The person must have came in this cave for shelter." Said Issac.

"What about all those grimm tracks outside?" Asked Jaune.

True to Jaune's word, lots of grimm tracks we're outside of the cave. Some prints had been clawed at and some looked like they wanted to move in, but they could't. Leo feels like he has seen this kind of behaviour when dealing with the other races he had fought. Usually Xur had little areas where he stood waiting for passing guardians to come buy some exotics with legendary shards.

"Let's head in. The person might be injured." Said Leo.

They all nod in agreement and head into the cave. Trevor uses a solar knife to mark where they have been so they could find their way out. The cave wasn't that big, but it was very deep. They find some old vases and old cave drawings, which the four guardians stare at one of the cave drawings. It was a massive sphere and a black pyramid. Below then sphere and pyramid, was two beings, both with horns. The being below the sphere, had a muscular build and it had deer like horns. The one below the pyramid was shorter and more of a skinny build, while having ram horns. To teams RWBY and JNPR, they we're just cave draws from the distant past. But to team LIHT, they we're shocked and terrified. The sphere was obviously the Traveler. While the pyramid was from The Nine's visions and from the Mara Sov's throne world.

"The Traveler was here!? And that's the Pyramid ship from the visions!? What are those two beings below them!?" Thinks Leo.

Trevor takes a picture with his scroll to show Ozpin. They then head deeper into the cave. Hank brings out a flashlight and turns it on. They see more old relics and more cave drawings. The drawings show the Traveler and the Pyramid shooting beams of energy at the ground and the two beings from before are in the crater. But as they go deeper, the drawings fade away. The last drawing shows the Traveler and the Pyramid shooting each other and going through a portal of some kind.

"I wonder what those things we're? They look like ships or something of great importance?" Said Blake.

"Yeah or something different." Said a uneasy Hank.

They then hear a faint voice.

"So lonely here." Came a voice, which sounded familiar to the four guardians.

"That must be the person. Hey! Are you okay!" Said Ruby.

They don't hear the person speak back. So they move in a little deeper into the cave to find the person. Soon they see a small camp site by the looks of it. A small lantern is on, but they can't see the person.

"Where is the person? They should be here?" Said Ren.

"Do not be afraid. The Nine wish to be kind to you." Came the voice from beside them.

"EEEEEEEEK!" Squealed Yang, Pyrrha, Weiss, and Jaune.

Yang had jumped into Leo's arms and was holding his helmet to her chest. Pyrrha and Jaune hugged each other for comfort from the sudden voice. Weiss had also clung to Hank with her eyes closed.

"YANG!? LET GO!" Yelled Leo for obvious reasons.

"Not that you mind it at all." Said Ying.

"F**k off Ying! There is a time and place for this kind of thing! This isn't the time, nor the place, for it!" Said Leo.

"But you wouldn't mind it right now." Teased Ying.

Jaune and Pyrrha look at each other, before they separate. Weiss had yet to let Hank go. Hank feeling sorry for the short girl, rubs her head to calm her down and comfort her. Weiss looks up and she realized what she was doing and lets Hank go. They then turn to see the person, if you call it a person. The man, given the tone of voice, was hunched over. He had on robes, that we're white with some grey, with a strange symbol on the right side of his chest. He did have a large backpack on, that was black and had multiple pouches. His face however, was one that most wouldn't call friendly. His head had no hair, his skin was black and made of tentacles. Finally, he had glowing yellow eyes. He would twitch every so often. He then looks at team LIHT.

"Ah! Guardians! I come bearing gifts from the Nine." Said the…. Man?

"What in the name of Ohm is that!? Said Blake in shock, while also going for her weapon.

"Xur?" Said the four guardians in confusion, due to seeing the exotic vendor on Remnant.

"WAIT WHAT!?" Yelled teams RWBY and JNPR.

"You know this thing!? And it has a name!?" Said Weiss.

"Yep. What you selling today Xur old buddy old pal." Said Leo.

"Leo!?" Said Yang in shock, due to her date was asking a tentacle face man what he's selling like it was a normal thing to do back home.

"I don't have any wears for you to buy. But, The Nine told me come to this strange place and give you gifts." Said Xur.

They see Xur pull off his backpack and produce twelve boxes, said boxes wouldn't have fit in in Xur's backpack. Each box was different. Xur then hands out three boxes each to team LIHT. The eight friends see their other four friends put the boxes in their inventories.

"So… Uh… Xur, why are you here?" Asked Ruby.

"My will is not my own." Said Xur.

"But what are you?" Said Weiss, who flinched when Xur looked at her.

"For organic life to exist it requires constant adaption." Said Xur.

"That doesn't help!?" Thinks all of team RWBY and JNPR

"What. Are. You." Said Yang, who said each word individually to get the point across.

"I do mean to explain, but every time I try, but I forget it." Said Xur, being more cryptic.

"Uh? We can lead you to a better place for…. Whatever you do? If you like, we can get the headmaster to talk to you." Said Ruby.

Xur twitched for a few seconds. Then he grabbed his lamp and placed it in his bag.

"Very well. The Nine may wish to speak to you." Said Xur.

The group of thirteen then head out of the cave and back to Beacon. Along the way, the grimm fallow them, but they don't attack them. The grimm snarled and roared at them, mostly at Xur. Xur was unafraid by the grimm, in fact, he seemed interested in the grimm.

"These creatures? They are not govern by The Nine. They fear me for no reason, for I am a trader." Said Xur.

"He's kinda weird." Said Nora in a low voice to Ren.

"Do not be alarmed, I have no reason to cause anyone harm." Said Xur.

Nora yelped when Xur had spoken. It took them some time to get to the cliff face that they had once gone to for their exam. As they go up the stairs, how they didn't notice them was a debate for another time, they do hear Xur talk some more. Some random talk, other sentences about salted popcorn.

"There you are! We have been trying…. Children! Get away from thing!" Said Mis Goodwitch in shock when she saw Xur.

"Whoa whoa! Teach calm down! Xur is only a trader! He doesn't mean any harm!" Said Leo.

Ozpin gains a surprised look when he sees Xur. Granted Oz had seen many things due to him reincarnating multiple times, but even he has never seen a creatures such as Xur.

"How long will Mr Xur be here for?" Asked Ozpin.

"When my mission is complete, The Nine will send for me." Saids Xur, as he fines a small cave near the cliff and sets up a small campsite.

"He'll be gone on Tuesday at ten am sharp. Then he'll be back on Friday at the same time." Said Hank.

"Then I have no problem with Xur setting up shop, so long as he isn't seen by the other students, outside of you twelve." Said Ozpin.

"Awesome! Now we can get any exotic weapons if we need to now every weekend!" Said Trevor.

They then head back to their dorms, while saying good bye to Xur. Blake heads over to Yang.

"So you finally asked Leo out?" Asked Blake.

"Yep! Me and hot stuff are heading to a club I know of. What about you thou? Have you asked out your prince charming?" Asked Yang.

"I did last week. It's tonight, I think Issac is coming around the dorm to take me somewhere tonight around six or six thirty." Said Blake.

"Wanna make it a double date? It will be fun?" Said Yang.

"I don't know. It's just yours and Leo's date. Me and Issac wouldn't want to ruin anything for you guys." Said Blake.

"Come on Blaky. It will be fine. Besides, Leo said something about showing me something and talking about something else. That is after the club and we're alone. And get your head out of the gutter Blake, I can see you thinking about your special books." Said Yang.

"I know that, it's just that Issac said the same thing to me two days later." Said Blake.

"It doesn't sound like your saying no to the double date idea." Said Yang with a grin.

"Fine, we'll make it a double date. I am curious on what they are going to tell us. Maybe something about their home town." Said Blake.

It was no secret that team LIHT had given them very little information about their home town. They haven't told them where it is, how big is it, and how many people live in the town. The only information they got, is that there is one big building in the centre of the town and the huntsman are called guardians. Then there is the crucible and gambit matches that the town uses for training. Blake and Yang head to their dorm to get ready for tonight.

Later at team LIHT's dorm

"You guys sure you want to bring Yang and Blake into the fold with our situation?" Questioned Hank as he works on the inner workings of his weapon.

Leo and Issac received a message about the their dates tonight. Blake had agreed to a double date tonight. Leo told them that he was going to bring Yang into the fold about their powers and past, more so his past. Issac was doing the same. Trevor was looking at the different clothes he had for some reason.

"Trevor? What are you doing?" Asked Issac.

"Just checking for any clothes that I need to throw out." Replied Trevor.

"You just got new clothes thou. Are you planing on asking Ruby out?" Asked a teasing Leo.

"Trevor and Ruby sitting in a…" Said Issac, but he was stopped.

'THUNK!'

A throwing knife had found its home in Issac's head. Issac then drops to the floor. Lucky Clover was in the bathroom having a bath.

"No… Maybe… Yessssss?" Said Trevor.

Fin comes out and revives Issac. Leo and Issac then get changed into some casual clothes for their double date. Leo had on some dark blue jeans, a red formal long sleeve shirt with a collar, and he wore a grey thin vest over the shirt. Leo had combed his hair down and then swept it back. He put on some cologne he had bought a few weeks ago. He then puts on some dress shoes. Issac puts on a dark purple short sleeve shirt that had a collar. He then puts on some light grey jeans and black dress shoes. He had on the cloak he had gotten from Blake for Christmas. Leo had on the Midnight Exigent titan mark.

"You ready?" Asked Leo.

"Revived ready brother." Said Issac.

"Have fun you two! The motels close around eight! Better no…" Called out Trevor, but two things hit him

One was a throwing knife from Issac in the chest. The second thing was a hammer from Leo in the head. Trevor was dead before he even hit the floor. Theta comes out in a panic. Hank just sighs.

"I'm surrounded by morons. But their my morons." Thinks Hank with a small smile.

At team RWBY's dorm

"Blake calm down. It's not like your marrying Issac." Said Weiss.

Blake's outfit consists of a white, v-neck, zip-up crop shirt with a black hem and three-quarter sleeves. Her emblem is printed in off-white on the left side of the shirt. She wears black pants that have a vertical grey stripe on the outer side of each leg and a black belt. Attached to the rear of the belt is a black piece of fabric that covers her from hip to hip. Underneath this is a longer, translucent, purple piece of fabric. She also wears black high-heel boots with two straps and buckles and purple underoles, reaching to mid-calf. She retains the black ribbons on her forearms and her black bow.

"How do you expect me to be calm!? I'm going on a date with the most powerful first year student in the history of Beacon. Not only that, he's a human. I'm a faunus. Do you know how long some relationships between faunus and human last? Around five or six days! So excuse me for being stressed!" Said Blake.

"Don't worry Blaky. The place we're heading will be fun. Throw back some drinks and you'll be calm I can tell you that." Said Yang.

Yang's outfit consist of a deep-collared cream vest worn over a low cut black shirt; both are covered by a dark grey shrug with a raised collar, three-quarter sleeves adorned with a single black stripe down the outside of each sleeve, and gold cuffs. A black miniskirt is worn under the cream vest. A pair of crooked black belts with gold accents are slung around her hip, with a purple piece of fabric attached to the left-rear section of the lower belt. She wears thigh high stockings attached to her miniskirt by garter-belts on the front and back of each thigh, decorated with four golden studs above her knee and her emblem on the outside of each thigh in gold. She also wears black ankle boots with multiple buckles and white ribbons on the back tied in a bow. Around her neck is a purple pendant set in silver.

"Your going to a bar!? Aren't you underaged!?" Said a shock Weiss.

"The bouncers don't know that." Said Yang in a playful tone.

A knock comes from the door. Ruby goes to open it and finds that its Leo and Issac.

"Your dates are here!" Said Ruby.

"Mis Belladonna, are you ready?" Asked Issac.

"Yes." Said Blake with some blush on her face.

"Their so handsome!" Thinks Yang and Blake.

Yang wraps her arm around Leo's arm. The four then head out to the air pads.

"So how are we getting to this place? The bullheads are in for maintenance." Said Yang.

'WHOOSH!'

Issac's Kabr's Glass Aegis comes flying in and lands. Leo's bullhead was a bit odd. It had a slim down cot pit, wings with pieces of cloth on them, two long tails with boosters on them and it was coloured a silver and bronze.

"Say hello to Saint-14's Gray Pigeon. I had this thing for a long time. Shall we." Said Leo.

Yang and Blake get into their respective date's ships. They then fly down to the landing pads at Vale. They then get onto some sparrows. Leo and Yang rides on the Hecuba-S sparrow. Isaac and Blake ride on the Winchester's Ruin. They listen to so music as they make their way to the club.

At the clubs entrance

The bouncers have been standing at the entrance for a long time. Business was slow after they reopened. They then see two bikes pass them, one had the familiar golden hair.

"Is that who I think it is?" Asked the bouncer on the left.

Yang, Leo, Blake, and Issac then come around the corner. Yang has a smile on her face. The bouncers run inside to barricade the door.

Inside the club

Junior comes out from behind the bar to see two of his men shoving chairs towards the door.

"What are you idiots doing!?" Said Junior.

"Their here!" Said the bouncers.

"Who's here!?" Said Junior.

'WHAM!'

"Guess who's back!" Said Yang after she had kicked open the door and with a smile on her face.

'CLICK! CLICK! CLICK! CLICK!'

Was the sound of multiple guns aimed at Yang's face. Leo brings out a rocket launcher. This got most of the gunmen to stand down.

"Don't shoot! Blonde! Sparky! Your here!? Why!?" Said Junior.

"Don't worry my friend. We're not here to destroy your bar. We're on a date right now. So here, this should pay off any drinks we buy tonight." Said Leo as he gives Junior a cheque.

Junior's jaw drops when he sees the number of zeros in the cheque. It was a cheque for one million lien. Junior then pockets the cheque.

"Enjoy yourselves." Said Junior as he walks away.

"Some place." Said Issac.

"No harm done. Now let's enjoy are selves." Said Yang, as she drags Leo over to the bar.

Some dancing music then plays. Issac looks at Blake and he holds out his hand.

"Shall we?" Said Issac.

"Yes." Said Blake with some blush on her face.

Later

The two couples sit at a one of the couches in the club. Yang was sitting in Leo's lap. Issac had Blake leaning on his right side. Yang was laughing up a storm.

"Your kidding!?" Said Yang.

"Nope. Me and my brothers tested to see what Shaxx would do when one of us got fifty downs. So in crucible, if your aura breaks, you get teleported to a waiting room to recharge. I don't know the mechanics of the device, but it super charges your aura." Said Leo.

"We did a rock paper scissors for the one to do the fifty knockouts. Leo won. So he gets out a grenade launcher to make it quick. So every time there was heavy ammo, Leo would get it." Said Issac.

"So when I get the fifty knockouts, Shaxx says this. 'This is uh… I don't have a medal for this. Hang on.' A few seconds pass before he replies. He then replies, 'I'm so proud of you guardian, and I want you to h… Have this.' He sounded so disappointed in himself." Said Leo.

"What did the medal look like?" Asked Yang.

Leo shows a picture of the medal. It had a black background and a yellow sun with a smily face on it. Under the medal, was some words. It was 'I made this just for you'. Yang, unable to hold in her laughter, falls off Leo's lap and onto the couch. They sit there for awhile longer, till they head out of the club. They then make their way to the parking lot.

"So where to now?" Asked Blake.

Issac would have answered, if his scroll hadn't gone off, but it wasn't his ring tone. The four lean in to listen to the sound coming from Issac's scroll. It started out as violin notes, then it changed into someone plucking a string to an instrument and then a drum would be hit. The pattern then repeated.

"This isn't my ring tone." Said Issac.

He then turns towards Beacon Cliffs and the ring tone gets slightly louder. Issac then turns away from the and the sound gets lower. This got their curiosity to go up a bit.

"So, who wants to find out what that is?" Asked Leo.

They all then head out. Once they get to the landing pads, Leo and Issac get their bullheads to land. They then head towards the Beacon Cliffs.

Near the cliff of the Emerald Forest

Issac had his scroll out and was waving it around to get the direction of the thing transmitting the signal. Yang had her scroll out as well, to see if she could get the signal. Blake on the other hand, she had on one of Issac's helmets, due to her cat ears picking up a high pitched sound. So Issac offered one of his rare helmets for her to wear. Soon they find the direction of the signal.

"So what do guys think it is? Some kind of Atlas test drone that crashed or an alien ship?" Said Yang as she walks with Leo.

"My moneys on Atlas tech. Aliens don't exist Yang. What do you think Issac?" Asked Blake.

"Well this tune sounds familiar. It might be something from our town." Said Issac.

This surprised Blake and Yang, something from Issac's home. Leo also seemed uneasy as well with the tune. They then see a ominous red glow coming from behind a small hill. They slowly make their way to the hill and the two guardians freeze. It was a war sat, but this one was shaped like an arrow head. It pulsed a ominous red and orange glow. The red circuit like ball was in the middle of the war sat. Red lines we're crawling out from one of the ports on the war sat.

"What is it?" Asked Yang as she tried to get closer.

But Leo gently pushes Yang behind him, while putting on some armour when he first met Rasputin. Issac does the same with Blake. The four slowly make their way towards the war sat, but the war sat turns red.

"Protivniki obnaruzheny. Obayatel'nyy (Hostiles Detected. Engaging)." Came a deep Russian voice.

Red like arms stretched out and grabbed a large rock. One nearly grabbed Leo, but he stumbled onto the ground and began to quickly shuffle back.

"S**t! It's SIVA!" Said Leo.

"What's SIVA!?" Asked Yang in a panic.

They see the rocks get deconstructed and turned into turrets. Laser sights form and aimed at them. It was then Issac said something that shocked Yang and Blake.

"Rasputin! Uspokoysya! eto my! Tvoi staryye druz'ya! (Rasputin! Calm down! it's us! Your old friends!)" Said Issac.

"Ayzek? Leo? (Issac? Leo?)" Said the voice.

The turrets then fold up and go into the war sat. The war sat then glows a orange colour and the ball of energy pulses when the voice talks.

"Uh? Who's Rasputin?" Asked Blake as she takes off the helmet.

"Oh. Yang, Blake. This is Rasputin. Rasputin, this is Yang and that's Blake." Said Leo.

"Zdravstvuyte (Hello)." Said Rasputin.

"Uh, Hello." Said Yang.

"Hi." Said Blake.

Yang then pulls Leo by his arm towards a small area away from the Rasputin. Blake does the same with Issac in the same area as Yang. Yang, who had somewhat recovered form her shock, looks at Leo. Leo had taken off his helmet after the turrets went away.

"What the hell is that!? And you said you had something to tell me after our date!? So, start talking." Said Yang.

Issac and Leo go in-depth about their true past. Form them being revived, to their war against the forces of darkness. To the city being nearly destroyed, Ghaul, the vex, the hive on mars, Cayde's death, and etc. Yang and Blake we're shocked. Their dates we're from an alternate universe, one possible more dangerous then theirs. Then there's the fact that they had stops beings considered gods and reality altering robots from destroying their home. Said home is the only last standing city on their planet. Half way through the explanation, Fin and Ying come out to help with the details.

"So two, along with Trevor and Hank are form a different universe." Said Blake.

"Said universe, where humans, awoken, and Exo's face extinction everyday. Not only that, you four we're brought back to life with no memory of your passed selves to protect the last city of earth. Am I saying this right?" Said Yang.

"Pretty much." Said Ying.

"Why didn't you tell us. We're your friends." Said Blake.

"Because, would you have believed us. Not only that, if Atlas found out, they would ship us off to some black site and dissect us and possible disassemble our ghosts to find out how to revive people and get space faring technology. Then if they get their hands on Rasputin, he would retaliate with extreme force. He turned SIVA on some Iron Lords, which he thought at the time we're hostiles. The short version, after the long fight, only two remained, with the rest died sealing SIZA away. Look if you don't what to talk to us or not date us, fine. But please don't…" said Leo, but the last part he didn't finish.

It was due to Yang kissing him. Issac also got a kiss from Blake. Once they stopped kissing, Leo and Issac just stood there looking off into the darkness.

"I think you girls broke them." Said Ying.

After a few minutes the group of four then head back to Rasputin, who had made a small mobile platform for himself to move to a new location. Leo then looks down at the Emerald Forest. He spots a large area for Rasputin to make a bunker for himself and to stay hidden.

"Ok Big Red. Before we move you to another area, just two questions and please answer it in English if you want. Why are you here? And why do you have SIVA, I thought only Outbreak Perfected was made of the last bit of SIVA?"

Rasputin stays quiet for a few minutes till he answers. When he answers, his voice is still deep and in english, but with a Russian accent.

"I had located a an anomaly out in space above the south pole on mars. So I made a copy of myself and sent the copy to the anomaly, which was a portal. I was making a small bit of SIVA, to be use if the situation called for it. The vanguard though to investigate when they noticed I was sending war sats to the plague lands. So any SIVA I had made, was put into this war sat. It is only a small amount that can make more of itself, but my programming doesn't allow me to use it as a weapon, but only as a construction device like it was suppose to be used and a last resort weapon." Said Rasputin.

"Huh, so you can speak english." Said Issac.

"He doesn't speak English all the time?" Said Blake in confusion.

"He only speaks old Russian, which not many guardians speak. He does have the knowledge to speak english, but he is unwilling to acknowledge humans as his masters. Me and my brothers told Ana, the woman who speaks for Rasputin, we would try and become friends with Rasputin. Not as Master and servant, but as equals." Said Leo.

They then get Leo's jump ship and hook up Rasputin. They then fly down to the large open area that Leo had seen. Once they place Rasputin down, Rasputin molds the war sat's top part and drills down into the ground. Once in the ground, they see the SIVA nanotechnology come out of the war sat. A red glow comes from the cracks in the ground.

"How long will it take to make the bunker anyway?" Asked Blake as she sees a crack close up.

"Rasputin told us he would contact us when he's done. He should be done by next week or two weeks from now." Said Leo.

The four then fly back to beacon to get some rest.

One week and two days later

Ozpin, Glynda, team JNPR, team RWBY, and team LIHT head out to the open area that had Rasputin's bunker.

"So you four saw what had landed by the cliff and didn't report it." Said Glynda who was annoyed that her students didn't report what they found two days later.

"Ms Goodwitch, have some patience. It was one of Leo and Issac's old friends from their hometown. But my question Leo, is why didn't you bring Rasputin to Beacon?" Asked Ozpin.

"He isn't one that likes crowds or people that much. Most just see him as a weapon maker or a threat."

"Why's that?" Asked Pyrrha.

"You can ask him when we see him. Here we are." Said Leo.

They come to the open area from two days ago. But they see a small hill had formed in the middle of the area. Glynda would have said something, if it wasn't for a pair of doors opening up, which we're disguised as the hill. The group then make their way inside. Ruby was being held back by Trevor.

"What is this!? Is that a cannon!? Ooo, is that a javelin!? What can it turn into!?" Said Ruby as she sees all the different weapons.

Weiss would have called Ruby a dolt, if she didn't see the nanotechnology building a war sat on a conveyor belt. This got her attention, nanotechnology hasn't been used like this, only in the medical range and it was still experimental.

"Is that nanotechnology?" Asked Weiss.

"Yes it is." Said Hank.

They then come to a window. They see what looks like a cannon. A war sat was loaded into the open barrel. The sides of the barrel then glow a orange-ish red colour. The doors open and the cannon fires the war sat. The room shook as the the railgun fired.

"What was that!?" Said Glynda.

"Pervyy iz mnogikh voyennykh seansov (The first of many war sats)." Said Rasputin through the speakers.

"Who's there!?" Said Glynda.

"Calm down teach. Come on. Time to meet Big Red." Said Trevor.

They then walk up to a door. The door opens on its own. Inside the door we're robots of a unknown model, each had a gun in it's hands. They then walk into a medium sized room, with a walk way to the centre and they see that the floor was gone around the walkway. In the centre of the room, was a tower. The top of the tower had a crystal that was still being built. The lights then slowly turn on, with a loud click sound for dramatic effect. At the end of the walkway was a terminal.

"So where is this Rasputin? He should have asked to build this base on Beacon grounds. And he should have come to the Vale council to share his technology." Said Glynda.

"I think he should have come to Atlas. They would ask him how he got this tech and if he was willing to give some of it to them for study and reverse engineering." Said Weiss.

A low rumble is heard. The crystal was then finished being built. A brilliant orange light comes on and Rasputin comes forth.

"Everyone, meet Rasputin. The last warmind to ever exist." Said Leo.

"So coooool!" Said Ruby and Nora.

"Amazing." Said Pyrrha.

Ren and Jaune stayed quiet, but they we're amazed by the appearance. Ozpin was also silent, but he could only wonder where the human body was, so he may shake Rasputin's hand. Glynda was on edge by the show of power and technology shown. Weiss was in the same bout as Glynda.

"What is a warmind?" Asked Ozpin.

"Its a artificial intelligence made in our home town." Said Leo.

"Is it a weapon. Because it sure does look like one." Said Glynda.

A rumble comes from the ball of orange energy. The ball pulses as Rasputin talks.

"Sem'ya Brey sformirovala menya kak vsevidyashchego spasitelya ... poka vy, lyudi, khotite ispol'zovat' menya kak primitivnoye oruzhiye ... no segodnya eto konchayetsya ... i ya opredelyayu real'nost' svoyego sobstvennogo sushchestvovaniya ... Moy vzglyad prostirayetsya do kraya etoy sistemy ... Nikogda bol'she ugroza ne ostanetsya nezamechennoy ... S etogo dnya ya budu zashchishchat' chelovechestvo na svoikh sobstvennykh usloviyakh ... YA Rasputin ... khranitel' vsego, chto ya issleduyu ... Mne net ravnykh." Said Rasputin.

"What did he say!?" Said Glynda, who thought Rasputin was threatening them.

"The Bray family shaped me to be an all-seeing savior... while you humans wish to wield me as a primitive weapon... but today that ends... and I define the reality of my own existence... My sight will stretch to the edge of this system... Never again will a threat go unseen... From this day forward I will defend humanity on my own terms... I am Rasputin... guardian of all I survey... I have no equal." Translated Leo.

"Thank you Ana for the lessons." Thinks all of team LIHT.

"My I ask why someone would build Rasputin?" Asked Weiss, who was intimidated by Rasputin.

"He was to be a guardian. The war sats are his eyes and ears in the sky. But they are also his swords. If he deems it necessary, he will have one direct itself at a target. From the message he gave me one week ago, he doesn't trust Atlas. Nor does he trust any other kingdom. But he is willing to hear Ozpin out, about a future partnership." Said Trevor.

"Very well. My I have an audience with Rasputin alone, but one member of team LIHT stay and translate for me." Said Ozpin.

Hank volunteered to stay with Ozpin. The rest went back to the main entrance and back outside. Glynda then begins to pace back and forth. She was rambling to herself, which none of the students could understand. A few minutes later, Ozpin comes back with Hank.

"How did it go with Big Red?" Asked Issac.

"Rasputin is willing to help protect humanity from the grimm. As long no one takes or uses his technology without his permission. He gave Ozpin here a device to talk to him. I'm going to be giving Ozpin lessons on Russian once we get back to Beacon." Said Hank.

"It's a good thing a told Rasputin about the festival coming up and the other kingdoms coming. Atlas will be showing up in a few days. Shall we head back to Beacon." Said Ozpin.

A few days later

Atlas ships coming flying in from the sky. They dock at the landing pads to drop off their passengers and other members. Ozpin and Glynda watch out from Ozpin's office.

"Ironwood doesn't need those ships, one would have been enough to bring his students." Said Glynda with some distrust in her voice.

"James does run the military as well as the school. So it is only natural for him to do this, even if it does give off the wrong idea.

The elevator then dings and the door opens. General James Ironwood is a well dressed and clean man. He wears a white overcoat, with a grey undercoat. A black sweater, a red necktie, and white glove on his right hand. His suit pants share the same colour as his overcoat and are tucked into silver boots accented in grey. His hair is black with some grey areas. He has a strip of silver metal is above his right eyebrow. His eyebrows are solid black. He smiles when he sees his friends.

"Ozpin it's good to see you." Said Ironwood.

"It's good to see you two Ironwood." Said Ozpin with a small smirk.

"Please, there's no need for formalities. You look great as well Glynda." Said Ironwood.

"James. I'll be outside." Said Glynda with a happy tone, then a flat tone.

Glynda then leaves the office. James just smiles.

"She hasn't changed a bit. I heard through the grape vine that some unknown creatures we're terrorizing some locals outside the Vale walls. Is it true?" Said James.

Ozpin then puts his scroll on his desk and the Scorn appear.

"Yes. They are known as Scorn, their from one of the most powerful first year team's home town. Those four are something else." Said Ozpin.

James shudders when he sees the Scorn.

"Has their town sent anyone to get help from the other kingdoms? Where is their town?" Asked James.

"They won't tell me. Leo said something along the lines of 'Not wanting to involve others in their problems' and that was the nice version. Leo and his three brothers are a well oiled machine on the battle field." Said Ozpin.

"Their all related?" Asked James in shock.

"Why yes they are. At first glance they don't seem to be related, but they all share the same last name. Hikiari, the name means light. Their leader Leo, their sniper Trevor, their war scholar Hank, and finally their assassin Issac." Said Ozpin.

"Read 'em 'n' weep boys." Came Trevor's voice.

"That's bull***t!" Said Hank.

"I call foul!" Said Leo.

A card then drifts down from the gears above the two headmasters. A few seconds pass before the voices return.

"Uh? This isn't the droid your looking for?" Said Trevor.

"Get him!" Said Issac.

"Hey watch it!" Said Trevor.

'CRASH!'

The two headmasters see team LIHT fall from the ceiling in a heap. Leo had Trevor in a headlock. Issac had his hand on Leo's face and he had the other hand pulling Hank's left ear. Hank had put Issac into a leg lock. Trevor had his left hand pushing up against Leo's head, while his right hand was pulling Hank's cheek. The four had on the Substitutional Alloy armour set with the Phenotype Plasticity armour ordainment set on, but they didn't have their helmets on.

"Trevor I'm going to kill you! You always cheat in poker!" Said Leo.

"Quiet strangling me!" Said Trevor.

"Quiet pulling my ear Issac! Trevor let go of my cheek! " Said Hank.

"Let go of me first!" Said Issac.

"What is the meaning of this!?" Said James.

"Hey buddy stay out of this." Said Hank.

"Yeah, this is a family matter. Now then, where was I. Oh! Trevor quiet pushing my head! Same for you Issac!" Said Leo, who squeezed some more on Trevor's neck.

Trevor was struggling to breath now and he pulled on Hank's cheek more. Hank was almost breaking Issac's legs. Issac pulls on Hank's ear in retaliation. Issac also shoves Leo's head more. This goes on for a few more seconds, till Glynda comes in.

"Boys! Enough!" Ordered Glynda.

"Oh. Hi Mis Goodwitch. We're just ruff housing. You know like another siblings. Right guys? Back me up here." Said Leo.

"You're on your own." Said Hank.

"F**k that. I an't getting on her bad side." Said Issac.

Trevor just gurgles as he struggles to breath. The four then get off the ground. Glynda then makes them sit on the couches. James then looks at Ozpin.

"They do that some time. Just some small family squabbles." Said Ozpin.

"Any ways. Its nice to meet you team LIHT. I've heard many stories about your teams accomplishments." Said James.

"Uh huh." Said team LIHT all at once.

"So why did you need use Ozzy?" Asked Trevor.

Ozpin then has team LIHT fallow him to the elevator.

"Come then and I will show you." Said Ozpin.

The seven then pile into the elevator and head down. They then come to a stop. They then enter the Beacon vault. James was shocked. Ozpin was bring four outsiders into the vault.

"Ozpin!? These four don't.." Said James in shock, but he was cut off by Ozpin.

"They know of my curse, the maidens, Salem, and the relics. I was hoping one of Hank's powers could help a curtain patient." Said Ozpin.

They then come to a machine with a woman in it. The woman had a light brown complexion, with shoulder-length, straight brown hair. She had a beauty mark below her left eye. She has extensive facial scarring on her face from some kind of attack. She is wearing a white tube top and a white skirt.

"This is Amber, the current fall maiden." Said Glynda.

"What happened to her?" Asked Hank as he walks up to her life pod.

"She was attack by three unknown people, one male and two female. After they subdued her, one of female assailants took half of her powers." Said Ozpin.

"Why not the guy?" Asked Trevor.

"The maiden powers can only be passed on to a female, one that is younger the twenty. The selection is also a bit troublesome. The last person that the maiden sees or thinks of will become the next maiden. If not, the power will go to a random person, which makes our job harder in locating them. We try to get the power to go to someone we trust." Said Ozpin.

"My question Oz, how can Hank help Amber?" Asked James.

"Hank's Well of Radiance is very supportive. Being able to heal and empower a person. Not only that, the well also reloads the persons equipped weapon automatically. I hope it can heal Amber more. But it is only a theory." Said Ozpin.

"It's worth a try." Said Hank.

Hank then goes up to the life pod. He then does a Well of Radiance. A beam of light does go to Amber. Hank also does a healing rift. Ozpin goes up to the monitors. The readings show little to no progress on healing Amber, but it was barely readable. Ozpin sighs.

"It seems that Hank's power is barely doing anything to help Amber." Said Ozpin.

"We just have to go back to plan A then. We find a suitable person to take the rest of Amber's powers." Said James.

The four guardians didn't like the sound of that plan. But they stayed quiet. They then head back to Ozpin's office. Once they are in there, a beeping sound is heard.

"Looks like Rasputin is wanting to talk." Said Ozpin.

"Who's Rasputin?" Asked James.

Hank gives James the cover story about Rasputin. The device then has a ball of orange-ish red form.

"It's a pleaser to meet you Rasputin. I was wondering if you allow my head scientists to go over you technology and possible build some for future use." Said James.

"He f**ked up!" Thinks all of team LIHT.

"On mne ne nravitsya on napominayet mne o Zavale (I don't like him. he reminds me of Zavala)." Said Rasputin.

"I beg your pardon? I didn't quiet understand you. Could you speak English please." Said James.

"Het (No)." Said Rasputin.

"He said no." Said Issac.

"Why? His technology could benefit all of Remnant." Said James

"Vy imeyete v vidu ves' Atlas. Snachala pochinite miny kompanii pyli Shneye, a potom ya mog by podumat' pomoch' vam. (You mean all of Atlas. First fix the Schnee dust company's mines and then I might consider helping you)." Said Rasputin.

"Look Jimmy. Rasputin doesn't like people he doesn't trust using his tech. By saying you want to have your tech heads examine his tech and build your own, that makes you a possible threat to him. If you as so much as attack him to get his tech, he will retaliate with extreme force. He once turned SIVA, a machine to be used as construction equipment, on a group of Iron Lords as a weapon. He possible hacked into the Schnee dust company's files and saw the treatment of the faunus. I know I have and I did for fun." Said Trevor.

"You two did what!?" Said James in shock.

"YA pogovoryu s toboy pozzhe, Ozpin, kogda general uydet. (I'll talk to you later Ozpin, once the general is gone)." Said Rasputin.

Rasputin then cuts the transmission.

"You four will tell me where Rasputin is, so I can arrest him and have his tach confiscated!" Said James.

"Do it yourself." Said team LIHT at the same time.

The four then head to the elevator.

"You four get back here this instant!" Ordered James.

"James! You do not want to face Rasputin! His tech is far to advanced for you to understand! He would decimate the Atlas army and your robots will fall under his command! Just trust Ozpin, he has Rasputin's trust." Said Glynda.

"They are right James. Rasputin isn't someone you can intimidate with your army's power. He will help protect humanity, on his terms." Said Ozpin.

"That's what scares me. What makes you think he can be trusted to fight the grimm. Including HER." Said James.

"I just do." Said Ozpin.

Till next time

Finally done! Here's The Chronicles of Team LIHT chapter 5. Sorry it took so long, the virus and all. I'm also trying to get into a new job, but the training gets postponed last minute every time. My current job is giving me lots of shifts lately, so takes up some time as well. I also jump from story to story somer days working on them. I will try and get the next chapter done as soon as I can. Stay safe and Peace.
